I had the idea that left hand cargo pocket carry would be helpful to a driver in the case of a sudden entry into the car by an unwanted parson. That has happened. I tried several holsters for my LCP Max. None worked well at staying in the pocket and allowing the gun to come out freely. In...

That's an eye-opener!

Don't be ridiculous! What are you talking about? A defender need not see a delay weapon to have a reasonable belief that someone is armed with one. He need not wait to see one to use deadly force. That's a basic tenet of use of force law.

Do you think that is important? A person who has a basis for a reasonable belief that someone had, or was trying to access, a weapon could address the Ability part of the A, O, J, P formula in a legal defense of self defense. He not need not see a weapon.. Why would that matter? People...

I had been, also. I saw it as a far less effective alternative to a firearm, for use whan a firearm could not be carried. The real benefit, I think, is its use as a less lethal option. We are told that 80% of criminal attacks do not rise to the threshold of justifying deadly force.

I'm not convinced of the effectiveness of pepper spray in all situations, but having a less-lethal option can go a long way in maintaining one's clean record, freedom, and fortune in the legal aftermath. The pen , of course is for last ditch use at contact distance. So is the phone, which is...

I'm sorry you do not find it "relevant". I do not know what you mean by saying that it is "PC". It is a standard iPhone. Are you suggesting carrying a firearm where it is prohibited, particularly where one can be expected to be examined by medical personnel?

Anything with less-than-service-caliber terminal ballistics; anything with which I cannot perform usual defensive drills with some proficiency; anything with a trigger pull too short or light for safety if there is no grip safety; anything too large or too heavy to carry concealed all day. The...

Mutual combat is unlawful in all states but two.

Some folks vary what they carry to suit clothing. I do not. Some like the idea of a "carry rotation". I do not. But my "EDC" is not really "every day". Every morning, I drop a bolstered pepper sprayer into my shirt pocket. Every morning, I put a reinforced pen into my shirt pocket. Every...

Try the M&P EZ models for low effort slide racking. Arthritis and tendonitis work against my use of a revolver.

Shooting at someone while having no basis for a belief that an imminent threat of death or serious harm existed....missing several times at a range of about four feet (but those bullets went somewhere).... standing in the middle of the street afterward, and getting run over... MAN!

An advantage for criminals...

Yes indeed. and the increasing prevalence of security cameras, doorbell cameras, and people talking video is having an influence on all kins of crime, from vand \alism to murder.

That can also get you shot---in self defense.

I carry pepper spray all the time, but I would only consider using it in the out of doors. Since the encounters that would justify the use of non-deadly force outnumber those in which a gun would be appropriate by roughly 5:1, I like to have options.

Yep. But for me, being the subject go filming will set off an alarm,

I point out that my white hair, impaired mobility, and advanced age make me an obvious target for criminal predators.

She is a convicted felon, and she lost her gun rights for her lifetime. Her guilty plea guaranteed a loss not eh civil side. Most people would not take that choice lightly.

Of course!!!
